To me Art and Religion are strongly related.
They both form languages in which I -thinking, talking, living and working-
try to understand reality and its meaning.
In ‘speaking’ them I actually feel connected.
I understand reality as ‘Creation’ , designed by the Artist par excellence.
In line with Christian tradition I call Him God.
Playing with paint, chalk, clay, bronze, wood and all those other delightful materials I look a bit like Him and I dedicate the results of my game to Him:
KunstDeeVee
Art Deo Volente
Art as it Pleases God.
- Willem Zijlstra
